Motiejus Jakštys cdd9968359 astgen: add anyframe handlers, fix switch err capture tracking
- Add AST_NODE_ANYFRAME_LITERAL and AST_NODE_ANYFRAME_TYPE handlers
  in exprRl, matching upstream AstGen.zig:1008-1016.
- Fix error capture usage detection in switchExprErrUnion: replace
  broken instruction-scanning heuristic with proper scope tracking
  via is_used_or_discarded field on ScopeLocalVal. This fixes 42
  missing dbg_var_val emissions in switch_on_captured_error.zig.
- Remove temporary debug output (fprintf, stdio.h).

About

zig0 aspires to be an interpreter of zig 0.15.2 written in C.

This is written with help from LLM:

  • Lexer:
    • Datastructures 100% human.
    • Helper functions 100% human.
    • Lexing functions 50/50 human/bot.
  • Parser:
    • Datastructures 100% human.
    • Helper functions 50/50.
    • Parser functions 5/95 human/bot.
  • AstGen: TBD.

Testing

Quick test:

zig build fmt-zig0 test-zig0

Full test and static analysis with all supported compilers and valgrind (run before commit, takes a while):

zig build all-zig0 -Dvalgrind

Debugging tips

Test runs infinitely? Build the test program executable:

$ zig build test-zig0 -Dzig0-no-exec

And then run it, capturing the stack trace:

gdb -batch \
    -ex "python import threading; threading.Timer(1.0, lambda: gdb.post_event(lambda: gdb.execute('interrupt'))).start()" \
    -ex run \
    -ex "bt full" \
    -ex quit \
    zig-out/bin/test

You are welcome to replace -ex "bt full" with anything other of interest.
